Northern Italy is the place to be in 2026 for the Winter Olympics, world-class shopping, and alpine scenery. This guide is split into two sections—The City & The Lakes and The Mountains & The Games—to help you find the best 'skip-the-line' tickets, boat tours, and mountain adventures. Whether you're visiting the Milan Duomo or the peaks of Cortina, these are the top-rated experiences I recommend for a smooth and high-quality trip.
